Report to the North Carolina General Assembly: §115C-83.4A ~ Advanced Courses

In response to G.S.115C-83.4A, the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) initially established the NC Advanced Placement Partnership (NCAPP) in May 2014 with the College Board. The NCAPP continues with its purpose to broaden access and successful participation in advanced coursework in North Carolina’s (NC) public schools. According to G.S. 115C-83.4A, “it is the intent of the State of North Carolina to enhance accessibility and encourage students to enroll in and successfully complete more rigorous advanced courses to enable success in postsecondary education for all students.”

The NCAPP continues to respond to the legislation through various efforts. In 2016-17, twenty-one NC school districts participated in the NCAPP as “targeted districts” with focused support and technical assistance. For this 2017-18 academic year, College Board and NCDPI looked at effective participation and success with the initial cohort of districts and began a new cohort of targeted districts. Currently, nineteen low-performing districts are participating with the NCAPP as targeted districts. NCAPP continued with districts who still needed support, added new districts who were interested, rotated off those that had developed sustained efforts, and revised the level of participation of some districts that were focusing on other efforts. By having a new cohort involved, NCAPP is growing to have further state-wide impact.

NCAPP also provides state-wide support through professional development opportunities open to all public school districts across the state, both face-to-face and online opportunities. In addition, the General Assembly continues to appropriate funds to pay for all Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB) exams for public school and charter school students who were enrolled in the corresponding AP/IB courses; this began in 2014-15. Beginning this year, legislation included Cambridge International Exams (CIE) to this effort. College Board and the NCDPI are

continuing to work together on these various aspects to ensure continued success of the NCAPP.

Alongside with NC’s public school districts, the NCAPP spearheads NC’s progress with AP course enrollment and AP exam participation. The state’s most recent data from NCDPI and College Board show continued gains in areas of course enrollment, exam participation and exam performance. Below are some key highlights that are detailed further in the report:

• Currently in 2017, 82,311 students are taking at least one AP course. These students represent 158,670 course enrollments. This represents a 2% increase in course enrollments and a 5% increase in number of students since last year. There has been a consistent increase in number of students and course enrollments since the beginning of NCAPP in 2014-15.

• The number of AP Exam-Takers in North Carolina’s public schools increased 6.0% from 2016 to 2017, representing a 22% increase over the last three years. In the 21 target NCAPP districts, the number of students taking AP exams decreased 8.0% in 2017 over the 2016 year.

• The number of AP Exams taken in North Carolina’s public schools increased 6.9% from 2016 to 2017, representing a 29% increase over the last three years.

• The number of AP Examinees scoring 3 or better on AP exams in North Carolina’s public schools increased 7.1% from 2016 to 2017, representing a 19% increase over the last three years.

• AP participation and performance for Black and Hispanic students in North Carolina’s public schools continues to outpace the participation and performance for Black and Hispanic students seen nationwide.

• The number of Black AP Exam-Takers in North Carolina’s public schools increased 5.9% from 2016 to 2017, as compared to a 5.0% increase in Black AP Exam-Takers in public schools nationwide.

• The number of Hispanic AP Exam-Takers in North Carolina’s public schools increased 13.5% from 2016 to 2017, as compared to an 8.8% increase in Hispanic AP Exam-Takers in public schools nationwide.

This continued success is a result of hard work by NC’s teachers and districts and the investment by NC to broaden access and successful participation in advanced courses. With NCAPP’s sustained efforts of professional development and technical assistance, the State Board of Education (SBE) and NCDPI expect continued progress to increase access and successful participation in Advanced Placement courses across NC and further meet the intent of the legislation.

Report Requirements This report responds to the requirements of the legislation enacted in SL 2013- 360, Broaden Successful Participation in Advanced Courses. The SBE/NCDPI report fulfills some requests, while others are fulfilled by the companion College Board NCAPP Report.

Basic Status and Efforts of NCAPP NCAPP Targeted Districts NCDPI and College Board began a new cohort of targeted districts for this academic year. NCDPI and College Board invited additional low-performing districts to continue as part of the NCAPP with focused participation as well as updated the level of participation of the initial cohort based on need. Twelve of the 21 school districts that participated last year continue with the NCAPP for 2017-18. Seven additional school districts are participating in the NCAPP as target districts for 2017-18. The target school districts are low-performing in the areas of ACT composite, math rigor, overall performance composite scores, and AP participation and performance. Each year, NCAPP and NCDPI will continue to re-evaluate the districts participating based on new levels of need to ensure effective implementation.

NCAPP State-Wide Efforts In addition to focused district support through professional development and technical assistance, NCAPP continues to work with state-wide efforts as well. In particular, every school district across the state is invited to send a select number of high school AP teachers to participate in content-based professional development opportunities throughout the year. Further state-wide efforts with regional technical assistance through the SBE regions and state-wide webinars to support systemic change and program development have also been developed and shared.

NCDPI Response to NCAPP Report NCDPI received the College Board’s NCAPP Annual Report in September 2017, based on an NCDPI request. The report reflects the progress of the NCAPP over for the last year as well as exam performance information.

NCDPI is pleased with the progress of the NCAPP and the Annual Report submitted by College Board. The College Board is committed to serving NC school districts and continues to partner with NCDPI to ensure effective implementation.

Distribution of NCAPP Funding for AP and IB Exam Fees For the payment of AP Exams, NCDPI paid College Board $12,184,251 to support NC’s public school students and families. NCDPI and College Board have developed a state-wide invoicing system to facilitate effective payment and lessen the burden of high schools and their districts.

NCDPI particularly notes the continued success of the implementation of the state-covered AP exam fees. College Board and NCDPI continue to work together with NC’s school districts and high schools and charter schools to improve this process. NCDPI appreciates the hard work of all involved to ensure that students’ test fees were covered.

For the payment of IB Exams and Fees, NCDPI paid International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) $1,411,885 to support NC’s public school students and families. NCDPI provided a guaranteed allotment (PRC 046) to school districts to facilitate payment of IB Exam fee invoices and also piloted a state-invoice process with a small group of districts. NCDPI and IBO have developed a full state-invoice process to better facilitate payment and lessen the burden of billing on high schools and their districts.

AP and IB Current Course Enrollment Data Based on NCDPI data, the number of students who enrolled in at least one AP course continues to increase, and AP course enrollments continue to increase as well. Currently in 2017, 82,311 students are taking at least one AP course. These students represent 158,670 course enrollments. This represents a 2% increase

in course enrollments and a 5% increase in number of students. In 2016-17, 77,920 students took at least one AP course. These students represent 154,916 course enrollments. This represents an 8% increase in course enrollments and a 1% increase in number of students. In 2015-16, 77,392 students took at least one AP course. This was an increase of 2,634 students which represents a 4% increase. These students represent 142,344 course enrollments. In 2014-15, 74,758 students took at least one AP course. This was also an increase of 4% from 2013-14 with a total of 71,655 students.

For the current 2017 student enrollment data for AP and IB courses in NC’s 115 traditional LEAs and Charter Schools, see the following Table I and Table II. The student enrollment data is disaggregated by gender, race/ethnicity, and economically disadvantaged status. All student data is masked at the appropriate level.
